इदं कसाम्बु चयनेन चितं तत् सजाता अव पश्यतेत । मर्त्यो ऽयम् अमृतत्वम् एति तस्मै गृहान् कृणुत यावत्सबन्धु ॥३७॥

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

This funeral pile (? kásāmbu) [is] piled with piling; come, ye [his] fellows, look down at it; this mortal goeth to immortality; make ye houses for him according to his kindred.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
